At the moment a Silver Star is pinned to his chest, U.S. Marine corporal Aleric Tanim falls through a portal into another world—a world where men are rarer than gold and every noble house wants to claim him. Summoned by cultists expecting a dragon, Aleric awakens with his battle wounds twisted into spiraling scars and a system panel declaring his gift: American Magic. He becomes both a miracle and a threat. Rescued by three rival daughters of the High Matronate of Velthara, he is thrust into political intrigue, religious judgment, and a dangerous game of survival where every alliance is a trap. Whispers spread that he is the prophesied Seventh Son—quest-bearer, curse-breaker, heir to a destiny older than kingdoms. But Aleric has no intention of being anyone’s pawn. The Dragon House will rise in fire, scandal, and steel. harem elements
